1.6 Customer Access Panel Figure 1-7 Rear of the ONS 15600 SDH, Including the CAP/CAP2 The ONS 15600 SDH CAP and CAP2 provide the following features: BITS T1 (100 ohm) interfaces via wire-wrap pins. • Two Ethernet interfaces via RJ-45 connectors with internal transformer isolation.
If the CAP/CAP2 fails, the node raises an EQPT alarm. You can replace the CAP/CAP2 on an in-service node without affecting traffic. To replace a CAP, refer to the Cisco ONS 15600 SDH Procedure Guide. Always replace the CAP during a maintenance window.
The ONS 15600 SDH has a backplane pin field located at the bottom rear of the shelf that is part of the CAP. The CAP provides 0.045 square inch (0.290 square centimeter) wire-wrap pins for enabling alarm inputs and outputs and timing input and output.
The PDU Alarm connection controls the visual alarm indicators on the front of the PDU. You can also activate the alarm cutoff (ACO) function by pressing the ACO button on the TSC card faceplate. The ACO function extinguishes all audible alarm indications, but the alarm is still raised in Cisco Transport Controller (CTC).
Use a straight-through LAN cable with the LAN port on the CAP or CAP2 to connect the ONS 15600 SDH to a hub, switch, or a LAN modem for remote access to the node. Use a crossover cable when connecting the CAP or CAP2 to a workstation. You can also use a straight-through or crossover LAN cable with the LAN port on the active TSC faceplate to connect directly to the local ONS 15600 SDH.
Ground the equipment according to Telcordia standards or local practices. The ground connection is located on the front of the bay’s top horizontal rails. The ONS 15600 SDH provides two #12 tapped holes to accommodate the grounding lug. The lug must be a dual-hole type and rated for at least 125-A capacity.
1.10 Fan-Tray Assembly The fan-tray assembly is located at the top of the ONS 15600 SDH shelf front compartment. The fan-tray assembly has three removable drawers that hold two fans each and fan-control circuitry for the ONS 15600 SDH (Figure 1-12).
Fan-Tray Assembly 1.10.1 Air Filter The ONS 15600 SDH contains a reusable air filter that is made of an open-cell polyurethane foam that is flame retardant and fungi resistant. The air filter is located above the three fan trays (Figure 1-13).
Caution failure to avoid affecting traffic because CTC software will shut down one of the SSXC cards. The ONS 15600 SDH requires at least one working fan in each of the three fan trays. When a single fan Caution in a tray fails, Cisco recommends replacing the tray with a fully working tray as soon as possible.
1.11.1 Card Slot Requirements The ONS 15600 SDH shelf has 14 card slots numbered sequentially from left to right. Slots 1 to 4 and 11 to 14 are reserved for optical (STM-N) traffic cards. These slots can host any of the ONS 15600 SDH optical cards.

In this chapter, “cross-connect” and “circuit” have the following meanings: cross-connect refers to the connections that occur within a single ONS 15600 SDH to allow a circuit to enter and exit an ONS 15600 SDH. Circuit refers to the series of connections from a traffic source (where traffic enters the ONS 15600 SDH network) to the destination (where traffic exits an ONS 15600 SDH network).
Chapter 7 Circuits and Tunnels 7.1 Overview 7.1 Overview You can create circuits across and within ONS 15600 SDH nodes and assign different attributes to circuits. For example, you can: Create one-way, two-way (bidirectional), or broadcast circuits. • Assign user-defined names to circuits.

The ONS 15600 SDH platform does not support low-order path squelching; however, when an ONS 15454 SDH and an ONS 15600 SDH are in the same network, the ONS 15600 SDH node allows the ONS 15454 SDH node to carry low-order path circuits in a VC_LO_PATH_TUNNEL. The ONS 15600 SDH performs 100-ms VC4-level squelching for each low-order-access VC at the switching node in case of a node failure.
Transmit ASAP STM-N ports ASAP Ethernet ports The ONS 15600 SDH supports both automatic and manual J1 path trace monitoring to detect and report the contents of the 16-byte path trace message (nonterminated) for the designated path. • Automatic—The receiving port assumes that the first J1 string it receives is the baseline J1 string.
For bidirectional circuits, CTC creates an SNCP connection at the source node that allows traffic to be selected from one of the two sources on the ONS 15600 SDH network. If you check the Fully Path Protected option during circuit creation, traffic is protected within the ONS 15600 SDH network. At the destination, another SNCP connection is created to bridge traffic from the ONS 15600 SDH network to the two destinations.

7.18 Low-Order Traffic Routing over an ONS 15600 SDH Hub Node When an ONS 15600 SDH node is configured as a hub between compatible protection domains, it is possible to use CTC to automatically create circuits, including low-order circuits from an ONS 15454 SDH node, across the domains.
SNCP-to-SNCP topology requires two tunnels. 7.18.2 Manual Low-order Circuit Creation When you must route low-order traffic from an ONS 15454 SDH SNCP across an ONS 15600 SDH hub to a line-protected domain, CTC cannot automatically create the end-to-end low-order circuit. The configuration requires three TL1-like circuits.
7.19 High-Order VC3 Traffic Routing 7.19 High-Order VC3 Traffic Routing High-order VC3 circuits are supported on the ONS 15600 SDH for connecting an ONS 15600 SDH node to another ONS 15600 SDH node, or for connecting an ONS 15600 SDH node to third-party SDH network elements.
• 8.1 Overview The ONS 15600 SDH usually operates as a hub node in networks that include ONS 15454 SDHs. Single nodes are installed at geographic locations where several ONS SDH topologies converge. A single ONS 15600 SDH node might be a part of several ONS SDH rings/networks.
Protect Path 8.3 Multiplex-Section Shared Protection Rings The ONS 15600 SDH can support up to 32 multiplex section-shared protection rings (MS-SPRings). Because the working and protect bandwidths must be equal, you can create only STM-16 or STM-64 MS-SPRings (that is, you cannot create an MS-SPRing with a mixture of STM-16 and STM-64 line rates).

The drop-and-continue DRI method is used for all ONS 15600 SDH DRIs. In drop-and-continue DRI, a primary node drops the traffic to the connected ring and routes traffic to a secondary node within the same ring.
DRI circuit is created. Figure 8-9 shows ONS 15600 SDHs in a traditional MS-SPRing DRI topology with same-side routing. In Ring 1, Nodes 3 and 4 are the interconnect nodes, and in Ring 2, Nodes 8 and 9. Duplicate signals are sent from Node 4 (Ring 1) to Node 9 (Ring 2), and from Node 3 (Ring 1) to Node 8 (Ring 2).

Secondary Path Figure 8-10 shows ONS 15600 SDHs in a traditional MS-SPRing DRI topology with opposite-side routing. In Ring 1, Nodes 3 and 4 are the interconnect nodes, and in Ring 2, Nodes 8 and 9. Duplicate signals are sent from Node 4 (Ring 1) to Node 8 (Ring 2), and from Node 3 (Ring 1) to Node 9 (Ring 2).
Page 164
Secondary Path Figure 8-11 shows ONS 15600 SDHs in an integrated MS-SPRing DRI topology. The same drop-and-continue traffic routing occurs at two nodes, rather than four. This is achieved by installing an additional STM-N trunk at the two interconnect nodes. Nodes 3 and 8 are the interconnect nodes.

You can connect ONS 15600 SDH nodes and LANs through direct connections or a router. • IP subnetting can create ONS 15600 SDH node groups, which allow you to provision nodes in a • network that are not connected using the data communications channel (DCC).
9-2). The ONS 15600 SDHs reside on a different subnet (192.168.2.0) and attach to LAN B. A router connects LAN A to LAN B. The IP address of router interface A is set to LAN A (192.168.1.1), and the IP address of router interface B is set to LAN B (192.168.2.1).
Static Routes = N/A 9.2.3 Scenario 3: Using Proxy ARP to Enable an ONS 15600 SDH Gateway Scenario 3 is similar to Scenario 1, but only one ONS 15600 SDH (Node 1) connects to the LAN (Figure 9-3). Two ONS 15600 SDHs (Nodes 2 and 3) connect to Node1 through the SDH data communications channel (DCC).
For this response to occur, the DCC-connected ONS 15600 SDHs must reside on the same subnet. When a LAN device sends an ARP request to an ONS 15600 SDH that is not connected to the LAN, the gateway ONS 15600 SDH returns its MAC address to the LAN device. The LAN device then sends the datagram for the remote ONS 15600 SDH to the MAC address of the proxy ONS 15600 SDH.

They run both OSPF and OSI (IS-IS or ES-IS) routing protocols as “Ships-In-The-Night,” with no route redistribution. ONS 15600 SDH NEs run TARP, which allows them to resolve a TL1 TID to a NSAP address. A • TID might resolve to both an IP and an NSAP address when the destination TID is an ONS 15600 SDH NE that has both IP and NSAP address.
9-30) shows an ONS 15600 SDH GNE in a multivendor OSI network. Both the ONS 15600 SDH GNE and the other vendor NEs are managed by an IP OSS using TL1 and FTP. The ONS 15600 SDH is also managed by CTC and Cisco Transport Manager (CTM). Because the other vendor NE only supports TL1 and FTAM over the full OSI stack, the ONS 15600 SDH GNE provides T–TD and FT–TD mediation to convert TL1/IP to TL1/OSI and FTAM/OSI to FTP/IP.

OSI stack and routes it to the destination using the IS-IS protocol. For TL1 traffic to ONS 15600 SDH NEs, the TID is resolved to both an IP and an NSAP address. The ONS 15600 SDH GNE follows the current TL1 processing model and forwards the request to the destination NE using the TCP/IP stack and OSPF routing.
OSS-initiated software downloads consist of two parts: the OSS to destination NE TL1 download request and the file transfer. The TL1 request is handled the same as described earlier. The ONS 15600 SDH NEs use FTP for file transfers. OSI-only NEs use FTAM to perform file transfers. The FTAM protocol is carried over OSI between the OSI NE and the ONS 15600 SDH GNE.
Page 223
CTC/CTM communicates with ONS 15600 SDH NEs over a IP-over-CLNS tunnel. The tunnel is created from the ONS 15600 SDH node to the external router. The ONS 15600 SDH NE exchanges TL1 over the full OSI stack using FTAM for file transfer. Figure 9-32 shows the same scenario, except the IP-over-CLNS tunnel endpoint is the GNE and not the DCN router.
ONS 15600 SDH OSPF area. An alternate approach is to create a single IP-over-CLNS tunnel from CTC/CTM to an ONS 15600 SDH NE, and then to configure a tunnel from that NE to an NE in each isolated OSPF area. This approach requires additional static routes.
9-34) is similar to OSI/IP Scenario 3 except that the OSI GNE only has an IP connection to the DCN. It does not have an OSI DCN connection to carry CTC/CTM IP traffic through an IP-over-OSI tunnel. A separate DCN to ONS 15600 SDH NE connection is created to provide CTC/CTM access.
(Figure 9-35) shows how the ONS 15600 SDH supports OSI DCNs. The OSI DCN has no impact on the ONS 15600 SDH because all IP traffic (CTC/CTM, FTP, and TL1) is tunneled through the OSI DCN. Cisco ONS 15600 SDH Reference Manual, Release 9.0...
Other vendor NE The IP OSS manages ONS 15600 SDH and other vendor NEs using TL1 and FTP. OSS IP traffic is tunneled through the DCN to the ONS 15600 SDH GNE. CTC/CTM IP traffic is tunneled through the DCN to the ONS 15600 SDH GNE.
IP and OSI/PPP/DCC ONS NE 3 ONS 15600 SDH NEs are managed by CTC/CTM only (TL1/FTP is not used). The OSI OSS manages other vendor NEs only. CTC/CTM communicates with the ONS 15600 SDH over a IP-over-CLNS tunnel between the ONS 15600 SDH NE and external router.
Management traffic between CTC/CTM and ONS 15600 SDH NEs is carried over an IP-over-CLNS tunnel. A static route is configured on the ONS 15600 SDH that terminates the tunnel (ONS 15600 SDH NE 1) so that downstream ONS 15600 SDH NEs (ONS 15600 SDH NE 2 and 3) know how to reach CTC/CTM.
CTC/CTM communicates with the ONS 15600 SDH over an IP-over-CLNS tunnel between the ONS 15600 SDH NE and the external router. A static route is needed on the GNE. The ONS 15600 SDH GNE routes OSI traffic to other vendor NEs. No IP-over-CLNS tunnel is needed.

DCN networks by enabling the IPv6 feature. After you enable IPv6 in addition to IPv4, you can use CTC, TL1, and SNMP over an IPv6 DCN to manage ONS 15600. Each NE can be assigned an IPv6 address in addition to the IPv4 address. You can access the NE by entering the IPv4 address, an IPv6 address or the DNS name of the device.
IPv6. For more information about enabling IPv6 from the CTC interface, see the Cisco ONS 15600 Procedure Guide. For more information about enabling IPv6 using TL1 command, see the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH, Cisco ONS 15600 SDH, and Cisco ONS 15310 MA SDH TL1 Command Guide.
In secure mode, IPv6 is supported only on the rear Ethernet interface. IPv6 is not supported on the • front port. ONS 15600 platforms do not support IPv6 on front port of TSC cards. IPv6 is supported only on the • rear Ethernet interface.
The Any Service Any Port (ASAP) Carrier Card plugs into any of the eight available I/O slots for the ONS 15600 SDH. Each ASAP carrier card has four slots available for up to and including four ASAP Pluggable Input/output Modules (PIMs). There are four slots available on the PIM for Pluggable Port Modules (PPM), which are Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) optics.
PIMs are functioning. Each SFP is also hot-pluggable. Layer 1 Ethernet transport is implemented for Gigabit Ethernet (GE) interfaces. GE traffic is encapsulated by generic framing procedure (GFP), ITU X.86, or Cisco high-level data link control/LAN extension (HDLC/LEX) and mapped into an SDH payload.

Matrix Line Card The ONS 15600 SDH provides transport functionality of all frames arriving on the Ethernet interfaces. Frames arriving on each Ethernet interface are mapped onto their own SDH path. In the reverse direction, frames arriving on an SDH path are mapped to one and only one Ethernet interface. Frames arriving on different Ethernet interfaces are not mapped onto the same SDH path.
The Ethernet ports can be provisioned for encapsulation in frame-mapped GFP (GFP-F) as per ITU G.7041, Cisco HDLC/LEX as per RFC 1841, or Ethernet over Link Access Protocol over SDH (LAPS) as per ITU X.86. LEX with CRC-32 is the default encapsulation, as it is supported by most Cisco data cards.
In the ONS 15600 SDH, oversubscription of interfaces is supported. This occurs when the GE interface is mapped to any of the VC3, VC4, VC4-2c, VC4-3c, and VC4-4c (c) rates. No guarantees on frame loss or delay due to oversubscription is provided by the system.

Up to 10 SNMP trap destinations and five concurrent Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) user sessions are allowed per node. The ONS 15600 SDH uses SNMP for asynchronous event notification to a network management system (NMS). ONS SNMP implementation uses standard Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) management information bases (MIBs) to convey node-level inventory, fault, and performance management information for SDH read-only management.
Chapter 13 SNMP 13.1 SNMP Overview The Cisco ONS 15600 SDH supports SNMP Version 1 (SNMPv1), SNMP Version 2c (SNMPv2c), and SNMP Version 3 (SNMPv3). As compared to SNMPv1, SNMPv2c includes additional protocol operations and 64-bit performance monitoring support. SNMPv3 provides authentication, encryption, and message integrity and is more secure.
Figure 13-3 illustrates SNMP agent get-requests that transport data to the network management software. Cisco ONS 15600 SDH Reference Manual, Release 9.0 13-3 78-18400-01...
13.4 SNMP Version Support The ONS 15600 SDH supports SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c traps and get requests. The ONS 15600 SDH SNMP MIBs define alarms, traps, and status. Through SNMP, NMS applications can query a management agent for data from functional entities such as Ethernet switches and SDH multiplexers using a supported MIB.
SNMP messages without authentication or privacy enabled are not allowed. When SNMP is configured in non-secure mode, it allows SNMPv1, SNMPv2, and SNMPv3 message types. 13.5 SNMP Message Types The ONS 15600 SDH SNMP agent communicates with an SNMP management application using SNMP messages. Table 13-1 describes these messages.

(DCC) monitoring using 64-bit RMON over the DCC to gather historical and statistical Ethernet data. In general, the ONS 15600 SDH system RMON is based on the IETF-standard MIB RFC 2819 and includes the following five groups from the standard MIB: Ethernet Statistics, History Control, Ethernet History, Alarm, and Event.
13.10.1 64-Bit RMON Monitoring over DCC 13.10.1 64-Bit RMON Monitoring over DCC The ONS 15600 SDH DCC is implemented over the IP protocol, which is not compatible with Ethernet. The system monitors Ethernet equipment history and statistics using RMON. RMON DCC monitoring for IP and Ethernet is used to check the health of remote DCC connections.

(invalid). A deleted row can be recreated. 13.10.4.5 Ethernet History RMON Group The ONS 15600 SDH implements the etherHistoryTable as defined in RFC 2819. The group is created within the bounds of the historyControlTable and does not deviate from the RFC in its design.
The event group controls event generation and notification. It consists of two tables: the eventTable, which is a read-only list of events to be generated, and the logTable, which is a writable set of data describing a logged event. The ONS 15600 SDH implements the logTable as specified in RFC 2819. 13.10.6.1 Event Table The eventTable is read-only and unprovisionable.

A P P E N D I X Administrative and Service States This appendix describes administrative and service states for Cisco ONS 15600 SDH cards, ports, and cross-connects. For circuit state information, see Chapter 7, “Circuits and Tunnels.” Entity states are based on the generic state model defined in Telcordia GR-1093-CORE, Issue 2 and ITU-T X.731.
B.2 Administrative States Administrative states are used to manage service states. Administrative states consist of a PST and an SST. Table B-3 lists the administrative states supported by the ONS 15600 SDH. See Table B-2 for SST definitions. A change in the administrative state of an entity does not change the service state of supporting or Note supported entities.
This section describes the transition from one service state to the next for cards, ports, and cross-connects. A service state transition is based on the action performed on the entity. When an entity is put in the Locked,maintenance administrative state, the ONS 15600 SDH suppresses Note all standing alarms on that entity.
